A BANK CASHIERS ROMANCE.
He Borrows Money from the Bank, Pays
Part Back and Is Arrested.

He Borrows Money from the Bank, Pays
Part Back and Is Arrested.
From the London Netcs.
Rather a romantic story was told at the
Brighton quarter sessions recently in the course
of the trial of Charles Dorey, Chief Cashier of
the Brighton Union Bank, for embezzement.
The prisoner early in life, was assistant secre-
tary to the Irish Church Mission Society, and
when about 81 years old became acquainted
with one of the late partners of the bank in
which he was ultimately employed. His connec-
ton with the bank extended over thirty years.
The expenses of his family, three sons and three
daughters as well as OF illness, made demands
on him that he was unable to meet with his
salary. Two of the sons who had gone to the
universities had died In 1870 DOrey had great
expectations from a single lady who had q
fortune of $4,000, and gave him to under
daughter 81 900. When she died, however, it
was found that she had destroyed her will only
the day previously. In the meantime the ac-
cused had obtained possession of some GO, 600
belonging to the bank, but he restored R2, coo
from the proceeds of legacy. and although the
Interpretations had extended over many
years they ceased four years ago. Mr.. BeSley,
for the defense, called witnesses as to charac-
ter. A memorial to the court, signed by $50
principal residents, 100 being customers of the
bank, was handed in ON behalf of the prisoner
and it was also stated that guarantee society
had paid 81 800; so that the bank had sustained
no loss, while all the securities were untampered
with. The Recorder thought that two things
weighed in the prisoners behalf, namely, his
restoring some of the money and the assistance
he had given in putting the figures of the bank
right; still he had abused the great confidence

Says the Dakota Bell: 1.-The Sioux CITY
Ga.) papers are making the charge against a
minister who recently went there to deliver
a series of temperance lectures that he
packed his trunk and left the city the first
time he was shot at on the street One of
them claims to be able to prove that he was
simply fired ct with a six-shooter and not
the more deadly repeating rifle generally
used on clergymen in that city. There is
no reason urges this paper, why the cleri-
cal gentleman should go off on the trot
when by staying and going properly heeled,
and not letting the opposition speakers get
the drop ON him, he might have accom-
plished much good" The Ben doubtless
intended to make o joke, but it came nearer
telling the truth about the condition of az
fairs in Sioux City.

Throughout its present session the New
York Legislature has been trying to discover
some way to employ convicts that would give
general satisfaction. The labor societies
object to their employment in the manufac-
ture of articles Of any kind, either by hand
or with the aid of machinery, and the tax
payers object to their being idle. The aim
is to make them self-supporting without
bringing them into competition with arti-
sans.
A bill passed the lower house Of the Legis-
lature on Thursday providing for the en-
ployment of convicts on county roads. It is
appears to be more acceptable than any
other hin on the subject that has been pro
posed. Although many Of the counties Of
New York have excellent roads there is
doubtless enough bad roads in the State to
furnish employment for all the States con-
yicts for several years.
This convict problem is a bothersome one
in all the States. 1t has occupied the at
tention Of the Legislature Of this State, and
will undoubtedly occupy il again at the July
session. The lease system is not satisfactory
LOT very many reasons, al Oh WHICH nave
been stated time and again. The propo-
sition which the Governor made to the Leg
islature relative TO an experimental farm
has merit, and ought to receive very careful
attention. The importance of separating
the young convicts and those guilty Of minor
offenses from the hardened offenders, with
the view Of giving the former chance to
reform, is too great to pass unnoticed. One
of the leading purposes Of the Governors
proposition is the reform of convicts who
are capable of being reformed.
The Legislature, as soon as it meets in
July, should determine to make some dispo-
sition of the convict question before it adj
journs. II it cannot agree upon any better
plan than that which finds favor in New
York, let that be adopted. The roads of
the State arc in deplorable condition, and
the counties, doubtless, would gladly sup
port the convicts while improving them.
The cost of such support would not be great.
In fact, it would be almost nothing in com
par-ison with the benefits which the counties
would receive from good roads

SnecIllation's Victim

The Chattanooga papers announce the
death of Allen Warden Hatch at the age of
81 years.
Some years ago Hatch was the merchant
king of Wisconsin. He resided at Milwau-
kee and enjoyed all the comforts and Iuxu-
ries that his fortune of $4,000, 900 could pur-
chase for him. A false step IN speculation
caused him to lose heavily; and very soon
all his vast possessions were swept away.
Broken down in health, he went to Chatta-
nooga, hoping that a warmer climate would
prolong his life at least for few years. He
fingered but a few months. however, and
then died pennileSs and with none but
strangers around him. Aid from the Ma
sonic fraternity alone prevented his body
from being buried in the potters field.
Hatch's story is a warning against specu-
lation, and young men would do well to
heed it. He accumulated his fortune by
years of patient, legitimate toll, and then
lost it by trying to increase it by question
able means. Had he been content with the
fruits of his toll, which were abundant
enough, he would not have become in his
old age tax upon the charity Of strangers
The business which is not based upon
speculation is best. A fortune acquired in
that kind of business usually brings honors
with it, because as he accunulates it the
possessor generally develops traits which
make men respect him.

The Hartford Couront makes a sugges-
ton regarding Editor O'Brien's visit to Can
ada that is worth repeating THE going of
O'Brien to Canada to take the field against
the Governor General" says the Courdnt,
sis one of the most significant events of mod
ern times, for it is a demonstration of faith
in the influence of public opinion upon the
actual government of nations; it is demo-
cratic movement n long way in advance of
any other recalled. And this is true with
out the least reference to the cause of Irish
independence or of home rule which O'Brien
represents What an advance it is on Fe-
nianism; how infinitely more effective it is
for OBrien's purpose than a Fenian inva-
sion of Canada. 1t is war on the largest
scale yet attempted, for it is a moral war.
If this Irish apostle and his friends are wise
enough not to provoke any violence, and
not TO reply to any, a great demonstration
will be made of popular power in high
placesn

Another tissue. ="

Gen. D. II, Hill, President of. the Middle
Georgia Mechanical and Agricultural Col
lege at Milledgeville, whose interesting war
articles in the Century have been widely
read, is the author OF book that has be-
come an tissue" 1t seems that while he was
President Of Davidson College, North Carroll
ma, he wrote an algebra. Intending, no doubt,
to counteract as far as possible the misrep-
resentations too often found In text books
written by Northern men, he Incorporated
into his algebra a number of examples not
at all complimentary to the Yankee. For
instance, on one page he gave this:
"A Yankee mixes a certain number of
wooden nutmegs, which cost one-quarter Of
a cent piece, with a quantity of real nut
megs worth &c. piece, and sells the whole
assortment for 81, and gains 50 IS by the
fraud. How many wooden nutmegs were
thereF
The Chicago Tribune, which never lets an
opportunity pass to stir up prejudice against
the South, makes the algebra the text of an
expression of virtuous Indignation on ac-
count of what it is pleased to term Gen.
Hills "diabolical" attempt to stir up preiu-
dice against the North. 1t would have been
better, perhaps, if Gen. Hill had omitted
from his algebra the example quoted and
others like it. No good is accomplished by
trying to prejudice the people of one section
of the country against those of another
Nevertheless, Gen. Hills attempt at
retaliation on account of the misrepresenta-
tions found in textbooks prepared by North
ern writers is not without excuse. Every
well-informed Southern teacher knows that
textbooks from Northern sources are full of
misstatements respecting the South. This
is especially true of school histories of the
United States, and even when the in
justice of such reflections is made
apparent to the authors, correc-
ton of the obnoxious passages is
refused As an illustration the following
instance may be cited: Sometime ago a
Georgia teacher wrote to a well-known
literary man of Boston, the author of a
school history of the United States, and
called his attention TO certain misstatements
concerning the Confederate armies. The
Boston man admitted that he had misrepre-
sented facts, but he positively refused to
make any correction.
1t would have been better if the objection
able problems had been left out of Gen.
Hills algebra, but as long as Northern text
books Intentionally misrepresent the South
neither the Chicago Tribune nor any other
| Northern paper has good reason TO complain
| of them.
